DataBank is a US-headquartered colocation and interconnection provider that sells rack, cage, suite, and wholesale data center space, alongside cloud and managed services, to enterprise, hyperscale, and public-sector customers. As of early 2026, the company operates more than 65-70 data centers across roughly 27-29 U.S. metro markets plus one facility in the United Kingdom, making it, according to Moody’s, the U.S. colocation provider with the largest geographic footprint of any competitor. Its portfolio spans over 2.7 million square feet and 350+ MW of installed UPS capacity, built through both organic construction and a string of acquisitions (C7 Data Centers, 365 Data Centers, Lightbound, zColo, and CyrusOne’s Houston assets). DataBank’s differentiator is its edge-first strategy: rather than concentrating in a handful of hyperscale hubs, it deliberately spreads mid-sized, carrier-neutral facilities across secondary and tertiary U.S. metros so that workloads sit within 100 miles of a majority of the U.S. population, while also running some of the most technically distinctive HPC deployments in the industry, including a purpose-built research computing center for Georgia Tech.

AI Data Centers

DataBank has invested specifically in high-performance and AI-ready infrastructure at select sites rather than across its whole portfolio uniformly. The most notable example is ATL1 in Atlanta, built inside Georgia Tech's CODA building at Technology Square as a purpose-built high-performance computing center using rear-door liquid cooling to handle 40-60kW-per-rack loads for the university's supercomputer and research partners. DataBank has extended similar HPC-ready design, including immersion cooling and direct-to-chip options, to its newer builds (such as its IAD2 facility, which hosts the University of Maryland's Zaratan HPC cluster) and describes its Universal Data Hall Design as the standard for new construction going forward as AI/GPU demand grows.

Common Questions

Does DataBank offer AI or GPU-optimized colocation infrastructure?

Yes. DataBank markets its newer builds as "HPC-ready" and supports high-density AI deployments with liquid cooling technologies such as rear-door heat exchangers, direct-to-chip cooling, and immersion cooling, alongside a Universal Data Hall Design intended to accommodate racks from standard densities up to extreme, liquid-cooled AI clusters.

How many data centers does DataBank operate and where?

As of company statements in 2024-2026, DataBank operates 65-70+ data centers across more than 27 U.S. metro markets (including Dallas, Atlanta, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Houston, Chicago, Denver, and Northern Virginia, among others) plus one facility, LHR1, near London Heathrow in the United Kingdom.

Who owns DataBank?

DataBank was founded in 2005 in Dallas and was acquired in 2016 by DigitalBridge Holdings (then Digital Bridge) from Avista Capital Partners; DigitalBridge later sold a roughly 27% stake to affiliates of Swiss Life Asset Management and EDF Invest, and DataBank has separately raised large equity rounds, including one led by AustralianSuper in 2024, to fund new campus construction.

What makes DataBank's Atlanta ATL1 facility unusual?

ATL1, built inside Georgia Tech's CODA building in Technology Square, was purpose-built as a high-performance computing center for the university and uses innovative rear-door liquid cooling to support HPC racks running far above typical colocation densities.
